A team of fundraisers put cycled 300 miles from Malaga to Gibraltar and raised £20k for autistic children.

The cash will be donated to the Hearts and Minds Challenge charity which aims to build a £1m specialist school for youngsters with autism in Greater Manchester.

Ian McGrath founded the Sale-based charity, inspired by his four-year-old son Patrick who was born with a giant hole in his heart.

Ian said: “Everyone had a great time.”

While fundraising for the hospital which helped his son, he met former Boyzone star Keith Duffy whose daughter is autistic – and the Hearts and Minds Challenge was born. Keith joined Ian on the charity ride.
